Electrical Conductivity and Hydrophobicity of Modified Graphene / Polyvinyl Alcohol Composite Films

Article Preview

Abstract:

Modified graphene (MG) incorporated into a matrix of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) were prepared by a hydrothermal method and ultrasonic dispersion. The effect of high MG content on the properties of composite films was studied. Due to the chemical reaction between MG and PVA, the water resistance and electrical conductivity were improved. The properties of new film and the possibility of its application as conductivity materials were discussed.
